In the last decades, the Law and Literature current has been conquering more and more space in the Brazilian academic environment. Even though the works have taken shape and explored the most varied themes, investigations in the area of Agrarian Law continue to receive few academic reflections. In view of this and taking advantage of the importance and dimension of the work of the Goiano author Bernardo Élis, both for the national and regional literary scene, the present research intends to verify the possible contributions of his narratives to the construction of legal knowledge and how, through his stories, Law can be rethought in the Brazilian agrarian scenario. To this end, it made use of exploratory research carried out through a qualitative analysis of data collected primarily from an interdisciplinary bibliographic review and documentary consultation. The first chapter will discuss methodological precepts and propose a theoretical construction based on a critical hermeneutics, with emphasis on the reflections made by François Ost, Paul Ricoeur and Cornelius Castoriadis, directed to the constitution and institution of the legal imaginary, through the dialogic process between Law and Literature. Then, in the second chapter, an analysis will be made about the role of Literature in the most varied representations of the Brazilian Hinterland, particularly in Bernardinian narratives, and how it is possible, from them, to reconstruct, in fiction, the dilemmas and central legal issues that plague the backcountry reality. Finally, the literary work of Bernardo Élis will be analyzed, bringing a discussion directed, above all, to the aspects of Law dealt with in his works and the possible critical reflections that are - directly or indirectly - concerning them, having as main basis his literary writings. As stated, the research seeks to have Élis's own literature as an investigative reference and discussion axis, which delineates the paths to be traced and sets the tone of the theses presented, which are, at the same time, analyzed and grounded when bringing up the theorizations of great thinkers of Law and related areas, seeking to investigate the limits and possibilities of interface between the two disciplines from the creative capacity of fiction. To this end, the works of José de Souza Martins, N. Poulantzas, Décio Saes and E. P. Thompson are mainly visited, who have a lot to contribute to the debate in the legal field. Finally, it was concluded that the hypotheses initially raised - regarding the contribution of the writings of the literate in question to the construction of legal knowledge - were fully verified, developed and discussed, so that it is possible to confirm how much Bernardo Élis's literature, in this case, it is able to foster a new look at the Law and the agrarian question within the initially intended framework, revealing new nuances and horizons that had not been explored until then.
